Crafting Tip #1 - Polyester Stuffing

If you're a crafter, quilter, or home decorator, you're likely familiar with fiber fill, also known as polyester stuffing. It's a popular material used for stuffing pillows, cushions, plush toys, and other crafts. While fiber fill is essential for achieving a soft and fluffy result, it can also be a significant expense, especially when you need a large quantity. However, with a little planning and creativity, you can save money when purchasing fiber fill. In this blog post, we'll explore some tips and tricks for cost-saving when buying fiber fill.

1. Buy in bulk

2. Look for sales and discounts

3. Consider alternative brands and types

4. Compare prices and quantities

5. Plan your projects in advance

6. Ulitize scrap or recycled fiber fill

7. Lastly, my favorite because it is readily available, is to purchase a standard size pillow from a discount store. 

Cost comparison:

Standard size pillow $3.44 (weighs 16 oz.)

Poly fil $5.37 (16 oz.)

I hope this helps save you some coin.

Happy Crafting!
